Applications: Suitable for use in Immunoflourescence. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:Direct FA: 1:10-1:50. Acetone fixation of the antigen source is recommended prior to staining.Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. FITC conjugates are sensitive to light.
